The Edmonton Northern Lites Synchronized Skating Club is seeking to increase our existing coaching staff for the 2010-2011 season and is accepting applications for the positions of Synchronized Skating Coach and Assistant Coach. NLSSC is recognized throughout Canada for its excellence and outstanding achievements in synchronized skating. We are a well-established, fast growing club, currently home to Beginner II, Juvenile, Pre-Novice, Intermediate, Adult I and Adult III teams.
We require someone who is enthusiastic and energetic and has the ability to interact well with skaters, coaches and parents. Our coaches are responsible for on and off-ice instruction at practices, competitions, ice-shows, etc., as well as choreography. The skating season runs from September to April. Our coaches also provide instruction at our Summer Camp during July and August.
Applicants for the Coach position must be NCCP Level 2 certified (or higher) in skating; previous experience in synchronized skating and choreography would be a definite asset. Applicants for the Assistant Coach position should have experience in synchronized skating.
